Published in 1902, The Hound of the Baskervilles is widely regarded as Arthur Conan Doyle’s finest Sherlock Holmes novel. Holmes and Dr. Watson investigate the legend of a spectral hound said to haunt the ancient Baskerville family across the fog-shrouded Dartmoor moors — a setting that has become one of the most atmospheric in all of detective fiction.
The novel expertly blends Gothic horror with the satisfying logic of a Holmes mystery, and it remains the most read of the entire canon. Download this free EPUB from Better Gutenberg and join Holmes and Watson on Dartmoor.
